"This show is phenomenal in every way, from stage craft to comic timing to costumes to choreography. But if you don't see it for any of those reasons, see it for the vocals. It's a whole hearted return to Broadway belting by a cast that makes it look easy. Mind blown!"

Laugh out loud hilarious
"Similar to some other more recent musicals, Death Becomes Her is an over-the-top romp with some wonderful special effects. Our cast was simply incredible and we left the show with stitches in our side. Definitely worth a viewing!"

Delightfully Campy
"I’m not one to laugh out loud in a theater, but this one had me. It was silly and weird and packed with memorable twists on the cult classic film. Not at all the straight adaptation I was expecting — in the best way!"

Hilarious, completely over the top and raunchy
"A mixture of burlesque, musical and unabashed fandom from the crowd, the talent in this musical was unsurpassed. Megan Hilty deserved the Tony for her incredible performance; the supporting cast was superb. I didn't know what to expect and everyone in our group was laughing nonstop. The sets and special effects were incredible. Decidedly not for children but for everyone else who wants a uproarious evening of total entertainment."

Huge fan of the movie, bigger fan of the play.
"I will be going back to see this production again. The music was wonderful, the acting superb, the wit and comedy carried so well. The writing was great and I was worried how the theme would carry over and it was all a fantastic experience. My 14 year old daughter accompanied me and she is now a huge fan from constantly listening to the cd we purchased on the night of the play. "

The best 2.5 hours of my week
"I had obviously been listening to the viral sounds of Jennifer Simard for about a month and had known some of the songs but this musical surpassed my expectations. I laughed so hard my cheeks hurt and want to go back and see it again because I feel like I didn’t catch all the jokes, there were so many one liners! Highly recommend- one of the best musicals I have ever seen!"

What an fantastic show!
"The costumes, sets and acting were all over-the-top amazing. The onstage special effects, choreography and lighting were outstanding. The music, although vocally demanding, was performed flawlessly. The story follows the original movie very closely, which was a good thing, because I had trouble at times understanding some of the lyrics. I would definitely recommend the show because it's one of the best I've seen in a long time. "

Funny as hell!
"If you want to laugh so hard it hurts then go to this show. The jokes keep on coming.
Don't bring kids - lots of sexual themes. The whole message about the absurdity of vanity and trying to fight off father time is lost on kids anyway."

Clever Powerhouse
"While our show did not feature Michelle Williams, the understudy was amazing. This is a clever, sly, and campy show about jealousy and greed. Megan Hilty is amazing as always. Jennifer Simard is hilarious and Christopher Sieber is the perfect dupe. It will make you laugh and the powerhouse vocals will blow your hair back in the best way! "

About
Death Becomes Her
Madeline Ashton is the most beautiful actress (just ask her) ever to grace the stage and screen. Helen Sharp is the long-suffering author (just ask her) who lives in her shadow. They have always been the best of frenemies…until Madeline steals Helen’s fiancé away. As Helen plots revenge and Madeline clings to her rapidly fading star, their world is suddenly turned upside down by Viola Van Horn, a mysterious woman with a secret that’s to die for.
After one sip of Viola’s magical potion, Madeline and Helen begin a new era of life (and death) with their youth and beauty restored…and a grudge to last eternity.
Now a warning! You may not be ready for the unbelievable amount of comedy, glamour, and magic onstage at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. Death Becomes Her is a “wildly entertaining, perfect musical comedy. It grabs the audience by the jugular and doesn’t let go” (Deadline). With direction and choreography by Tony winner Christopher Gattelli, Death Becomes Her is “a laugh-filled, tuneful musical to die for” (Variety) and “a cheek-aching laughter roller coaster — the most fun night out on Broadway!” (The Daily Beast). Experience the “savagely funny” (Time Out) pop-culture phenomenon that’s been certified “hilarious” by The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Z100, Beyoncé (!!), Goldie Hawn, Superman aka David Corenswet, Michelle Williams (the other one), and countless fans on Instagram, TikTok, and beyond. See it now, and laugh for eternity.
